A few Brits, variable quality.
The Cubana is CU-T669 on 2/5/71. Monarch G-AOVL had just been retired from use.
Same aircraft on 31/5/84 now registered CU-T114 for Aerocaribbean.
CU-T114 5/7/84 now in full colours
G-BDUR 11/8/84, due for repainting as CU-T121
G-ANBJ 30/12/68. First ever picture with my Kodak Instamatic
G-APNB Dec 1973 (I think - might have been Dec 1972 - not sure if all the Brit 737's hadn't been repainted by Dec 1973)
Another rethink - photo probably taken 12th Dec
1970 - G-APNB was broken up in 1971. For some reason I had recorded it as G-AOVF, but G-APNB was the only Donaldson Brit to carry the reg in the location in the photo.
Here it is again on 3/4/69, presumably on a training flight as it landed, vacated the runway then taxied out and took off again. I'd never heard of Donaldson so it warranted a photo, although not really close enough for my Kodak Instamatic. Donaldson only started revenue ops in April 1969.
G-AOVF 12/4/80
9Q-CPX 14/9/80
And now for something completely different:-
G-APRL 5/10/79
G-AMYJ 27/9/77
G-ANAF 28/7/84
G-AMPY 1/6/86
